The quotation from the preamble to the declaration of independence supports the idea that the United States is based on a social contract is this: "Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." The aforementioned statements just further proves that there is a contract and understanding between the people and the those in power that their power is simply given by the public.
